Story of Riverdance out on DVD

Ten years ago Riverdance was launched on the world, a spectacular music show which began as an intermission act at Ireland's staging of Eurovision and launched the careers of dancers Michael Flatley and Jean Butler.

The Best of Riverdance (2 Entertain, 21.95) is a captivating look back at the emergence of a dancing phenomenon that not only made lots of money for its backers, Moya Doherty and Bill Whelan, but turned Irish dancing into a worldwide success.
